You know what kills people? Telling them masks work when they don’t
(1) An immunocompromised person might steer clear of social interactions, but instead goes and mingles with a mask.
(2) A sick / symptomatic person might stay home, but instead goes and mingles with a mask.
Some have replied that no one ever said masks were anything more than mildly protective.
Not true at all, as we see here with CDC Director Redfield in 2020 saying face masks possibly more effective than vaccines.

Redfield didn't lie. He obfuscated. He said they have "clear scientific evidence they work." He just meant a different *type* of science than what he knew most people would think. The implication was "clear *medical* scientific evidence they work." But his deceit was in the word, 'science.' He meant *behavioral* science. His obfuscation was hiding in the ambiguity of the word "science." As pseudosciences do. Behavioral science being the science of mind-farkery. So there's that. I keep waiting for people who know better like Sen. Rand Paul and Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo to make those claiming masks are scientifically proven to work answer what *type* of science they mean. And flush them out of the ambiguity of the word.
Maybe Redfield was onto something - the vaccines aren't really a success story either.
